The compounds according to the invention are valuable neurokinin (tachykinin)-antagonists which have both substance P-antagonism and also neurokinin A- or neurokinin B-antagonistic properties. They are useful for the-treatment and prevention of neurokinin-mediated diseases such as respiratory complaints, e.g. asthma, bronchitis, rhinitis, coughs or expectoration as well as inflammatory eye diseases such as conjunctivitis, inflammatory skin diseases such as dermatitis and urticaria, inflammatory intestinal disorders such as ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease, other inflammatory diseases such as polyarthritis or osteoarthritis and pain (e.g. migraine or vascular headaches) and vomiting.

The invention therefore also relates to the use of the compounds according to the invention as remedies and pharmaceutical preparations which comprise these compounds. They are preferably used in humans. The compounds according to the invention may be administered by intravenous, subcutaneous, intramuscular, intraperitoneal or intranasal route or by inhalation, transdermally, optionally with the aid of iontophoresis or enhances known from the literature, and by oral route.

For parenteral use the compounds of formula I or the physiologically acceptable salts thereof, optionally together with conventional substances such as solubilisers, emulsifiers or other adjuvants, may be made into solutions, suspensions or emulsions. The solvents may be, for example: water, physiological saline solutions or alcohols, e.g. ethanol, propandiol or glycerol, sugar solutions such as glucose or mannitol solutions or a mixture of various solvents.

In addition, the compounds may be administered by means of implants, e.g. of polylactide, polyglycolide or polyhydroxybutyric acid or intranasal preparations. The compounds according to the invention may be prepared by methods which are generally known. One method of synthesis is shown in the following scheme. The symbols A, Z, B, R¹, R², R³, R¹² and m used therein are defined as herein before.

By reacting corresponding carbonyl compounds IIa with suitably substituted amines IIb and “cyanide sources”, normally with the addition of acidic compounds, initially in step a) aminonitriles III are prepared with an amine component Z. The methods of aminonitrile synthesis known in the literature may be used. The cyanide sources used may be potassium cyanide, sodium cyanide, trimethysilylcyanide, acetonecyanohydrin and others: potassium cyanide is preferred. The acid compounds used may be acetic acid, citric acid, inorganic acids, acid salts such as sodium bisulphite, potassium bisulphite and others; hydrochloric acid is preferred. The solvents used are preferably solvents such as methanol, ethanol, diethylether, tert.-butylmethylether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxan, methylenchloride or acetonitrile, including mixtures with water. Preferably, diethylether, tetrahydrofuran and ethanol, as well as mixtures thereof, are used in admixture with water. The reaction may be carried out at temperatures from −10 C. to 40 C., preferably at temperatures in the range of 0 C. to room temperature. If trimethylsilylcyanide is used as the “cyanide source”, the work is preferably carried out with ethers in the absence of water and in this case zinc iodide is preferably used as the acid compound. The aminonitriles III may also be synthesised, as known in the literature, via the intermediate step of an imine or immonium salt, which can be obtained from the carbonyl compound IIa and the amine IIb, by the addition of cyanide. Similarly, a cyanohydrin may be prepared by known methods, first from the carbonyl compound IIa with cyanide, and this cyanohydrin can then react with the amine IIb to form the aminonitrile III.

The aminonitriles III are reduced in step b) to the diamines IV. The methods conventionally used for reducing nitriles to amines may be used for this step. Catalytic hydrogenation, preferably with Raney-nickel as catalyst, preferably in the presence of ammonia, and reduction with borane-dimethylsulfide complex, borane-tetrahydrofuran complex, sodium borohydride, preferably in the presence of catalysts such as cobalt chloride or Raney-nickel, with lithium aluminium hydride, particularly in the presence of catalysts such as aluminium chloride, with diisobutylaluminium hydride and with alane or lithium aluminium hydride in the presences of an equivalent amount of conc. sulphuric acid are suitable. The use of lithium aluminium hydride in the presence of an equivalent amount of conc. sulphuric acid is preferred. The solvents used are ethers, preferably diethylether, possibly in admixture with tetrahydrofuran. The reaction temperature may be in the range from −78 C. to reflux temperature and the work is preferably done at temperatures of −5 C. to 10 C.

Alternatively, the-diamines IV may also be obtained by adding the amine IIb to a nitroolefin VII (step e)) using methods described in the literature and subsequently reducing the nitro group, again using methods known from the literature (step f)).

If B denotes a group —C(O)—NH—, the diamine IV in step c) is reacted with a corresponding isocyanate. Inert solvents such as methylene chloride, chloroform, diethylether, tert-butylmethylether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxan, petroleum ether, toluene, xylene and acetonitrile may be used, but preferably methylene chloride is used. The reaction is carried out at temperatures between −20 C. and 40 C. preferably at ambient temperature.

If B denotes a group —C(O)—, —C(O)—CH₂— or —C(O)—CH₂—CH₂—, the diamine IV is coupled with a carboxylic acid

in step c) to form the amide. The methods conventionally used in preparative chemistry, including, in particular, peptide chemistry, are used for this. The carboxylic acid is activated in the form of its acid chloride or activation is carried out using carbonyldiimidazole, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, diphenylphosphorylazide, diisovalerylchloride, diethylphosphorylcyanide and other activating reagents known from peptide chemistry. It is preferred to use diethylphosphorylcyanide. The activation and coupling are preferably carried out in the presence of auxiliary basis such as triethylamine, pyridine etc., or in the case of acid chlorides aqueous alkali metal hydroxide solution. Preferable, triethylamine is used. The reaction may be carried out in solvents such as dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran or acetonitrile, dimethylformamide being preferred. The work is done at temperatures between −10 C. and 40 C. preferably at ambient temperature.

If B represents a group —CH(R¹²)— or —CH₂—CH₂—, the diamine IV in step c) may be reacted, using methods known from the literature, with

wherein x is a leaving group such as chlorine, bromine, iodine, O-tosylate, O-triflate, O-mesylate etc.

However, it is also possible initially to prepare an amide, as described above, by reacting the diamine IV with a carboxylic acid. In a subsequent step the group B —C(O)— or —C(O)—CH₂— of the amide can then be reduced to a group B —CHR¹²— wherein R¹² equals H or —CH₂—CH₂—. The methods known from the literature for reducing amides may be used for this step, such as catalytic hydrogenation or reduction with lithium aluminium hydride, with sodium borohydride in the presence of cobalt chloride or acetic acid or trifluoroacetic acid or with borane or borane-tetrahydrofuran complex or borane/dimethylsulfide complex. Preferably, catalytic hydrogenation is carried out or sodium borohydride is used with trifluoroacetic acid or borane/dimethylsulfide complex in tetrahydrofuran or dioxane.

The reaction with the above-mentioned boron reagents is carried out at temperatures ranging from −10° C. to about 100° C., preferably at the boiling temperature of the solvent.

Preferably, the diamine IV in step c) may also be reacted with a corresponding carbonile compound

wherein B′ is ═C(R¹²)— or ═CH—CH₂—, according to methods known from the literature, to obtain an imine which can be reduced to V. The imine is preferably prepared in inert solvents such as benzene, toluene or xylene (or other solvents suitable for the azeotropic removal of the water) using a water separator; or in methylene chloride, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane or tert.butyl-methylether in the presence of a water binding agent such as molecular sieves and the like, or else in alcohols. The imine may be reduced using reducing agents such as sodium borohydride, sodium cyanoborohyride, lithium aluminium hydride, zinc and hydrochloric acid, formic acid and hydrogen in the presence of metal catalysts.

Preferably, IV in step c) is reacted directly with the above-mentioned carbonyl compound in a reductive amination to obtain V. Sodium borohydride, sodium cyanoborohydride, lithium aluminium hydride, zinc and hydrochloric acid, formic acid and hydrogen in the presence of metal catalysts are suitable reducing agents. The reducing agent preferably used is sodiumcyanoborohydride in a solvent such as methanol, ethanol or isopropanol. The pH of the reaction mixture is preferably adjusted to a level of 7-8 using ethereal or ethanolic hydrochloric acid. The reaction temperature is selected between −10° C. and 40° C. and preferably the work is done at room temperature.

The remarks made above for step c) also apply to the insertion of group R² in step d).

6.5 g (40 mmol) of 1-phenylpiperazine are dissolved in 40 ml of 1N-hydrochloric acid and mixed with a solution of 5.4 g (40 mmol) of 2-methoxybenzaldehyde in 60 ml of ether. The mixture is cooled to 0° C., a solution of 2.5 g (40 mmol) potassium cyanide in 30 ml of water is slowly added dropwise, with stirring, and the mixture is stirred overnight at ambient temperature. Then the organic phase is separated off (any product already precipitated is removed by suction filtration beforehand). The aqueous phase is washed three times with 50 ml of ether, the organic phases are combined and dried over sodium sulfate. The solvent is eliminated in vacuo and the residue is stirred with cyclohexane and suction filtered. 9.3 g of (2-Methoxyphenyl)-(4-phenylpiperazine-1-yl)-acetonitrile are obtained (76% yield) as an almost colourless solid.

2.3 g (60 mmol) of Lithium aluminium hydride are suspended in 100 ml of ether under a nitrogen atmosphere and cooled to about −10° C. 1.6 ml (30 mmol) of conc. sulphuric acid are carefully added dropwise thereto, with-further cooling, and the resulting mixture is stirred for 1.5 hours at about −5° C. Then a solution of 9.2 g (30 mmol) of (2-methoxyphenyl)-(4-phenylpiperazine-1-yl)-acetonitrile in 50 ml of tetrahydrofuran is slowly added dropwise. The mixture is allowed to come up to ambient temperature and is then refluxed for about 10 minutes. It is then allowed to cool and stirred overnight at ambient temperature. A mixture of 8 ml of tetrahydrofuran and 8 ml of water is then added, initially very carefully, to the grey suspension, whilst cooling with ice, and then 165 ml of 2N hydrochloric acid are added. The reaction mixture is then washed twice with 70 ml of ether and the ethereal phases are discarded. 18.2 g of Seignette salt and 45 ml of conc. sodium hydroxide solution are then added. The mixture is extracted four times with 70 ml of ether, the combined organic phases are dried over sodium sulfate and the solvent is eliminated in vacuo. 8.6 g of 2-(2-methoxyphenyl)-(4-phenylpiperazine-1-yl)-ethylamine are obtained (92% yield) as a yellowish oil.
